Li Nanke looked at Shangguanguan with a strange look, his eyes seemed to say: Boy, I didn't realize you were this kind of person, you had hidden it quite deeply before.
Even Yan Jiangxue looked contemptuous.
"Listen to me and take off their clothes." Shangguan Guan insisted.
Li Nanke shrugged, "I'm not interested in stripping you." After saying that, he walked up to the faceless Taoist, knelt down and pulled off his mask.
But underneath the mask, there was actually a disfigured face.
This face seemed to have been scalded by oil and fire, wrinkled and twisted, which made people feel sick to their stomach.
"No wonder you are wearing a mask, it turns out you really have no face."
Li Nanke threw the mask aside.
The faceless Taoist was now like a dying animal, even breathing was extremely laborious.
Looking at Li Nanke in front of him, his eyes showed deep unwillingness and resentment, and he said weakly: "God loves to favor you."
"Don't attribute your incompetence to God's unfairness." Li Nanke stood up, stepped on the other person's neck and throat, and said calmly, "If you want to survive, you know what to say."
"snort."
The faceless Taoist gave him a mocking look without saying a word.
On the other side, Shangguan Guan really took off the clothes of two beautiful women, and the process was extremely rough.
Li Nanke took a closer look and saw a butterfly tattooed on the two women's backs. The butterfly was very similar to the butterfly Li Nanke had encountered when traveling through time and space. It was lifelike.
"Is this what you want to see?"
Only then did Li Nanke understand the purpose of stripping off his clothes at Shangguan Pass.
Shangguan Guan nodded and said: "Female members of the underworld organization have this butterfly mark on their backs."
It seems that these two women are undoubtedly members of the underworld.
Li Nanke lowered his head and stared at the faceless Taoist, "So you are also a member of the underworld?"
The faceless Taoist remained silent.
Li Nanke turned to Yan Jiangxue and asked, "Is there any torture method to pry this guy's mouth open?"
Yan Jiangxue rolled her eyes, stepped forward and lightly tapped a few of the other person's acupuncture points.
"Is this the end?"
Li Nanke was dissatisfied when he saw no reaction from the faceless Taoist.
But then, he saw the faceless Taoist twitching all over, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, and his face becoming extremely distorted in pain.
He just gritted his teeth and could not hold on for more than seven or eight seconds before the faceless Taoist screamed in pain.
The shrill sound was like the howl of a killing pig.
Li Nanke bared his teeth and looked at Yan Jiangxue with a hint of fear and happiness in his eyes.
Fortunately, this woman never tortured him.
From now on, please be more relaxed with your teasing, but don't make me angry.
After a full minute, the pain was relieved. Li Nanke looked at the sweating Taoist priest and asked with a smile: "You should have something to say to me now."
The faceless Taoist wanted to ignore him, but when he looked at Yan Jiangxue, he trembled all over and said in a trembling voice: "What do you want to know?"
Seeing that the other party finally spoke, Li Nanke gave Yan Jiangxue a thumbs up and said, "I want to know a lot, but let's start with the present. Where did you get this bone whistle that controls monsters?"
"It was given by the headquarters."
"Where is the headquarters?"
"I don't know about this. My status in the underworld is neither above nor below, and I have limited access to core secrets."
The faceless Taoist said.
Li Nanke stared at the other party coldly, confirming that the other party was not lying, and continued to ask: "Does every member of the underworld have this bone whistle?"
"No, they were selected from above."
"How many members of the underworld are there in the capital? Tell me what you know."
"The areas under their jurisdiction are different, and I don't know much about them. Apart from the two of them, there is also Tie Rufei. As for the others, I don't know."
"Iron like flying?"
Li Nanke narrowed his eyes, "So Tie Rufei didn't commit suicide, it was you who silenced him."
"right."
"Why silence him?"
"..." The faceless Taoist was silent for a few seconds and said, "Because he messed up the Duan Daming case, and because he has been targeted by you and Shangguan Guan, the higher-ups can only silence him."
Hearing this, Li Nanke couldn't help but wonder, "What are the selection and recruitment standards of the underworld?"
The faceless Taoist had a complicated expression, "Try to choose officials, if not, settle for the next best thing and choose their family members. In short, they must be bound to the court."
I see.
Li Nanke glanced at Mrs. Duan and Tian Shuangfeng, and a chill ran down his spine.
This strategy is really powerful.
The imperial court was quietly corrupted.
Currently, those who have been found include the wife of the censor, the sister of the supervisor of the Suzaku Department of the Night Patrol Department, and Tie Rufei, the former deputy supervisor of the Qinglong Department...
This is scary enough.
I'm afraid there are other officials and family members.
It has to be said that the underworld has indeed been seriously underestimated, and it is not known to what extent it has penetrated.
I don’t know if the Supreme Emperor in the deep palace noticed it.
"Who is your boss?"
Li Nanke continued the interrogation.
The faceless Taoist hesitated again at this time.
Seeing this, Li Nanke directly called Yan Jiangxue over. The latter was so frightened that he quickly replied honestly: "I don't know his true identity. Every time we meet, we are in Yun Chun Building. As long as we leave the password in advance, he will
Come and meet.”
Yun Chun Tower?
Li Nanke has heard of this place.
It is a brothel that is not very famous.
"What's the secret code?"
"I have a ring on my hand. When I go in, give this ring to the madam and she will arrange a meeting."
The faceless Taoist said.
Li Nanke lowered his gaze and saw that the other person was wearing an ordinary gold ring with only leaves engraved on his little finger.
Li Nanke took off the ring.
When he was thinking about what to ask next, he suddenly heard Mrs. Duan and Tian Shuangfeng on the other side scream at the same time.
When he turned around, he saw that the two women had fallen to the ground, their faces were blue, and their orifices were bleeding.
What's even more terrifying is that a small green snake crawled out of their mouths and rushed towards Shangguanguan who was also confused like lightning, not even the afterimage could be caught.
Fortunately, Shangguan Guan was agile and managed to avoid the attack of the poisonous snake. He dropped it to the ground and crushed it with his foot.
Kill and silence!
Li Nanke was startled, suddenly thought of something, and went to pinch the faceless Taoist's neck, but he was still a step too late.
A small snake also crawled out of the faceless Taoist's mouth. He was bleeding from all his orifices and was already dead.
"The murderer is outside!"
Li Nanke shouted to Yan Jiangxue.
The woman moved her lotus steps and swept out of the hall.
Shangguan Guan, who had recovered from the crisis, came over cursing and said angrily: "I was silenced after just a few interrogations. The scum of this underworld reacted too quickly."
Li Nanke groped for a while on the faceless Taoist, found a few talismans and a letter, and said lightly: "They should all have poisonous insects in their bodies. Once betrayal is discovered, the poisonous poison will take effect."
"What a pity for these two girls."
Shangguan Guan sighed.
Li Nanke knew that the other party was not a compassionate master, so he snorted coldly: "Shangguanguan, you still have something to hide from me, right?"
